The plan lists projects for a six-year period, from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2018, to give the Governor, the State Budget Director, members of the Advisory Budget Commission, and the North Carolina General Assembly a long-range forecast of state funding requirements for water resources development projects. The preparation of this annual plan is required by G.S. 143-215.73A. The plan is divided into three sections: 1) Project Listing; 2) Project Priorities and Funding Recommendations; and 3) Project Information. The first section lists all known eligible water projects by major category. The second section shows the priority assigned to each project in the second year of the 2011–2013 Biennium and whether DENR recommends it for funding, for deferral or for elimination. The final section contains specific information on each project as required. The following table shows the projects DENR recommends for funding in FY 2012–2013. The Governor makes the final decision on which of these water resources development projects will be included in the proposed capital budget that is sent to the 2012 Session of the North Carolina General Assembly.

Introduction A. Authority and Purpose of Plan General Statute 143-215.73A requires the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to prepare a statewide plan for water resources development projects. The plan lists projects proposed for a six-year period and is due by July 1 each year. The purpose of the plan is to give the Governor and the State Budget Director a long-range forecast of state funding needs for water resources development. The Governor can then use the plan to select and recommend projects for funding in the biennial budget. The plan also gives the members of the Advisory Budget Commission and the General Assembly a long-range forecast of state funding requirements for water resources development projects. The plan will provide them with information to use in their consideration of the Governor’s funding recommendations. B. Organization and Project Categories The plan has been written in three parts: 1) Project Listings; 2) Project Priorities and Funding Recommendations; and 3) Project Information. The first part contains a listing of all projects grouped under the five categories specified in part (b) of G.S. 143-215.73A. The second part shows the priority assigned to each project and whether or not it is recommended for funding, for deferral, or for elimination. The final section contains specific information on each project as required under G.S. 143-215.73A(d). C. Distribution of the Plan The Department of Environment and Natural Resources submits the plan to the Governor each year by July 1. The Governor also provides copies of the plan to the General Assembly along with her recommended biennial budget or her recommended revised budget for the second year of the biennium. D. Budget Recommendations This report includes the recommendations of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as to which projects should be funded in the next biennial budget or in the revised budget for the second year of the biennium. The Governor chooses which of these projects, if any, will be included in her recommended biennial budget (or in the revised budget for the second year of the biennium). The budget document transmitted to the General Assembly by the Governor identifies the water resources development projects recommended for funding. 2 II. Project Lists A.

This has had far reaching effects on the physical, chemical, and biological functioning of the estuary. High salt content has manifested itself with timber die-off, which is present throughout many of the freshwater swamps above Wilmington. In addition, it has resulted in increased current and projected future costs to industries in the upper estuary due to increased monitoring and modifications of their facilities in order to cope with increasing salt loads. Reduction in the amount of introduced salts, which serve to flocculate riverine sediments in the area, could also result in substantial reduction of maintenance dredging at Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point. The Corps has proposed a Section 216 study on the salt water intrusion problem in the Cape Fear River estuary, of which Snow’s Cut has a role. The Corps would begin a reconnaissance study in FY 2013 to determine whether it is in the Federal interest to do this study. The U.S. Congress has not approved funding for this study and the non-federal sponsor is yet to be determined. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY (AIWW) MAINTENANCE DREDGING ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY (AIWW), SNOWS CUT (SECTION 216) The AIWW navigation channel runs 308 miles from the Virginia state line to the South Carolina state line through Currituck, Camden, Dare, Tyrrell, Hyde, Beaufort, Pamlico, Carteret, Onslow, Pender, New Hanover, and Brunswick Counties. In the past, the Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers has had sufficient funds to keep this channel dredged to its authorized depth of -12 feet, mean low water. However, several times in the last decade, the District has not had sufficient funds to perform this dredging. In order to keep the AIWW open for both commercial and recreational boat traffic, the State of North Carolina has provided funds to the Wilmington District so that they could hire a dredging contractor to do the dredging.

EVERETT JORDAN LAKE WATER SUPPLY BALD HEAD ISLAND BEACH RENOURISMENT, BRUNSWICK COUNTY The Village of Bald Head Island has requested that the Wilmington District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, perform a feasibility study on a shore protection project for the portions of its beach that are experiencing severe erosion. If directed by the U.S. Congress, the Wilmington District will perform a reconnaissance study, funded entirely with federal monies, in Fiscal Year 2013. If the reconnaissance study shows that there is a federal interest in doing this project, a cost-shared feasibility study will likely begin in Fiscal Year 2014. Unknown at this time N/A Ongoing Estimated Completion Date Status of Project B. Everett Jordan Lake is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' multipurpose reservoir that became operational in 1983. The water supply storage in the lake was included at the request of the State of North Carolina and was done with the understanding that the actual users of the water would repay the Corps the costs of including the water supply storage and the portion of the annual operating and maintenance costs associated with that storage. The General Statute GS 143- 354(a)(11) of the State of North Carolina gives the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) the authority to allocate to local governments any water supply storage held by the State in Federal reservoirs. The estimated safe yield of the 45,800 acre-feet of water supply storage is 100 million gallons per day. As of May 2007 the EMC has allocated 63 percent of that storage as follows: Level I allocations: Towns of Cary and Apex, Chatham County, City of Durham, Town of Morrisville, and Wake County - RTP South.; and Level II allocations: Town of Holly Springs, Orange County, and Orange Water & Sewer Authority. Both the State and the local government allocation holders are paying their proportionate shares of the interest on the cost of the water supply storage, plus their share of the O&M and major rehabilitation cost. In addition, local government allocation holders using Jordon Lake water are also paying off the principle. The initial principle amount was $4,388,000; as of March 1, 2012 the current remaining balance to be paid is $1,510,246.

The project consists of five segments: (1) the 15-foot deep Bulkhead Channel from the Town to Beaufort Inlet; (2) the 15-foot deep Gallants Channel from the Town north to the Newport River; (3) the 15-foot deep Taylor’s Creek Channel from the Town east to the North River and Back Sound; (4) the 12-foot deep Town Creek Channel and Basin north of Beaufort; and (5) the 14-foot Morgan Creek Channel and Basin. Carteret County, the non-Federal sponsor. N/A Next maintenance scheduled for FY2013 Estimated Completion Date The proposed project will replace and upgrade the existing breakwaters that protect the harbor and waterfront of Belhaven, NC. The existing breakwaters consist of northern and southern structures, each about 1900 feet long, at the entrance to Pantego Creek, separated by a central 500 foot navigation opening. The existing structures have many openings that allow water to pass through with little abatement. In the Spring of 2009, the Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers, received $3,250,000 in Disaster Supplemental funds to replace the existing structure with a new timber structure. This work was done in FY 2011. The Corps is also studying the addition of submerged reefs in the lee (harbor side) of both breakwaters. These reefs would improve the estuarine habitat and also increase sheltering of the harbor from waves, and if funded, could be constructed in FY 2013 The Corps plans to complete the reef study and start construction in 2013, if funded.

The Corps would begin a reconnaissance study in FY 2014 to determine whether it is in the Federal interest to do this study. No state or local matching funds are required. The study will determine if the Corps should continue to operate the lock and dam in the future. The U.S. Congress has not approved funding for this study and the non-federal sponsor is yet to be determined. This Corps of Engineer project will protect these beaches through the construction of continuous storm berms and dunes along their ocean shorelines. The Wilmington District is investigating what the most effective dimensions of these berms and dunes should be through the preparation of a General Re-evaluation Report (GRR). They hope to complete the GRR in 2013. If that is the case, then initial construction would occur in Fiscal Year 2018, and re-nourishments would occur at three- to four-year intervals for the life of this project. The cost-sharing would initially be 65 percent Federal, 35 percent non-Federal, but then switch to 50–50 for all re-nourishments.

The watersheds of the four streams are experiencing rapid residential and commercial development that has led to a variety of negative impacts on the subject streams, including slope failures, bank erosion, high in-stream sediment loadings, and loss of vegetated riparian buffers. The project would consist of stream channel reconstruction where feasible, restoration of riparian buffers, construction of natural marsh catchments, and purchase of existing wildlife corridors. In addition, aquatic habitat will be restored through the installation of in-stream habitat improvement structures. The City of Concord is the non-federal sponsor. This Corps of Engineers hurricane protection project is being constructed south of Carolina Beach in front of developments known as Wilmington Beach and Kure Beach. It provides for construction of a dune with a base generally bordering at or near the building line with a crown width of 25 feet at an elevation of 13.5 feet above mean low water and a beach berm 50 feet wide at elevation 9.0 feet above mean low water, extending 18,000 feet from the southern limits of Carolina Beach.

The area, which is largely developed, has experienced erosion and damages as a result of recent storms and hurricanes. The study has located sand sources that could be used for beach nourishment. The Corps recommends that the initial nourishment be done on approximately 13.5 miles of beach in three phases over a three-year period. The design cost-sharing agreement between Dare County and the Corps of Engineers was signed in July 2001. The project cooperation agreement was executed in September 2004. The lack of Federal funding has delayed the start of the project. Project is currently on hold. Currituck Sound is a 153 square mile brackish water estuary separated from the Atlantic Ocean by the Outer Banks. A recent increase in salinity levels has caused a severe decline in many freshwater fisheries (largemouth bass, black crappie, and bluegill). Also, there has been a significant loss of submerged aquatic vegetation. The Corps, in partnership with the State of North Carolina has begun an investigation to determine the specific causes of the decline in species mentioned above and the necessary actions to restore the Sound. If the study finds a feasible solution, implementation would begin in FY 15.

Kerr Reservoir is operated by the Corps of Engineers for flood control, hydropower, recreation, and water releases to enhance striped bass spawning in the Roanoke River. The storage and release of water at Kerr Dam affects agriculture, forestry, wildlife, water quality, and industrial water use in the entire lower Roanoke Basin. The State of North Carolina, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the Corps of Engineers are sponsoring a study of the operation of Kerr Lake to see if the economic and environmental benefits from the lake can be increased. At the end of the study it is anticipated that both structural and non-structural measures will be taken to improve the operation of John H. Kerr Dam. Preliminary engineering and design of these measures would begin in FY 2013. This project involves the maintenance dredging of the navigation channel in Far Creek, which runs from the village of Engelhard to Pamlico Sound. The channel is used by commercial fishing boats that dock in the basin at Engelhard. The channel is 12 feet deep and 100 feet wide. The non-Federal cost is required to prepare the dredged material disposal site. Hyde County is the non-federal sponsor of the project.

As the non-Federal sponsor of this channel, the state is required to pay for preparation of the spoil disposal sites, which involves the raising of dikes around a spoil disposal island (Island H). The Corps pays for 100% of the dredging costs. In addition to the channel from Oregon Inlet to Wanchese Harbor, there are two other channels—the Manteo to Wanchese and the North—that are a part of this project. Because the Corps views these projects as primarily recreational, it has not maintained them. Because of this policy, the state has paid to keep these channels open. The proposed project would use sandy dredged material from maintenance dredging of Old House Channel to build submerged sand mounds to be topped with cultch for oyster reefs. Sand would be placed in submerged enclosures in a depth of water where optimum oyster growing conditions are found. The submerged mounds will be located near the authorized navigation channel where submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) or other significant resources exist. Creation of the submerged sand mounds would provide an environmentally sound disposal area for dredged material.

This study will focus on ways to improve water quality as well as how best to improve aquatic habitats. It focuses on three areas: (1) stream and wetland restoration; (2) removal of obsolete dams and other obstructions; and (3) restoration of oyster habitat and oysters in the Neuse River estuary. Projects recommended by this study may be done as continuing authority projects by the Corps of Engineers, if funding is available, or by the State of North Carolina, if federal funding is not available. The deepening of Morehead City Harbor to 45 feet was completed in 1994. Maintenance dredging of this Harbor has been done in two ways: (1) sand from the outer ocean bar channels has been placed in either an ocean disposal site or a near shore site and (2) mostly sandy material from the inner channel and harbor area has been pumped to the Brandt Island disposal area.

FY 2065 Status of Project 23 Project authorization in a Water Resources Development Act is next milestone Estimated Completion Date WILMINGTON HARBOR DEEPENING, NEW HANOVER and BRUNSWICK COUNTIES This project includes deepening of Wilmington Harbor, the navigation channel in the Cape Fear River from Wilmington Harbor to the Atlantic Ocean, and the Northeast Cape Fear River navigation channel. It also includes the construction of a 200-foot widening of the Cape Fear River navigation channel for a distance of 6 miles (called a passing lane) and the construction of wideners at the major turns and bends of that Cape Fear channel. The deepening will allow Wilmington Harbor to accommodate fully loaded container ships and other bulk cargo ships and keep shipping costs competitive with those at Norfolk, Charleston, and Savannah. The passing lane and wideners will allow larger ships to navigate the Cape Fear River channel in less time and greater safety. The U.S. Congress funded a new start on this combined navigation project in 1997. This project also includes the construction of a long-term disposal site for materials dredged in the vicinity of the State Port.

PROJECT, NEW HANOVER AND BRUNSWICK COUNTIES Maintenance dredging is required almost every year to keep open the channels from the Atlantic Ocean up the Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear rivers to Wilmington, Fayetteville, and other terminal points. The Federal government pays for the cost of dredging the sediments, while the state of North Carolina, the non- Federal sponsor, pays for the cost of dredged material disposal areas. Without this maintenance work, the exporting and importing of goods and commodities through the State Ports Authority terminal and numerous private terminals could not occur. The beach quality sand that is dredged from the navigation channel from the Atlantic Ocean to Wilmington is placed on the following beaches: Carolina Beach, Bald Head Island, Caswell Beach, and Oak Island. N/A Status of Project 24 Ongoing Estimated Completion Date *State expenditures since 2001 WILMINGTON HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS FEASIBILITY STUDY, NC This is a proposed cost-shared U.S. Army Corps of Engineers feasibility study which would investigate issues related to traffic delays and safety concerns caused by the existing Wilmington Harbor channel alignment. Areas to be investigated include the entrance channel, navigation channel adjacent to Bald Head Island and the Battery Island turn, and the safe and efficient turning of containerships in the existing Anchorage Basin, The study would seek to identify options for improving access to the State Ports Authority terminal and other private terminals in the Wilmington Harbor complex and improve safety for ships visiting the harbor. The safe and efficient operation of the Wilmington Harbor complex is vital to the economy of the local area and the entire State.

During the 2011 treatment season, DWR worked with local government and utility sponsors in the treatment of approximately 1833 acres of weed infested waters using herbicides, and an additional 584 acres were targeted with biological agents (Treatment numbers include Lake Gaston). In 2012 a similar number of projects and scope is expected. The estimated total cost to provide this service is $200,000. Lake Gaston is infested with a noxious aquatic weed called hydrilla. Hydrilla interferes with recreational activities like fishing, boating/PWC, and swimming. Hydrilla also has the potential to impact hydro-electric operations. A 2011 survey identified 1,449 acres of hydrilla in this ~20,000 acre reservoir. The Division of Water Resources has assisted the Lake Gaston Weed Control Council in the chemical and biological treatments of hydrilla since 1994. To suppress hydrilla growth an applicator was contracted in 2011 to apply herbicide to ~1,275 acres. Continued herbicide treatments are needed to further reduce hydrilla acreage. $ 3,438,407 State Funding Source G.S. 143-215.71 On-going Status of Project Estimated Cost in FY 2013 (if funded) 31 Deferred Est.

Introduction A. Authority and Purpose of Plan General Statute 143-215.73A requires the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to prepare a statewide plan for water resources development projects. The plan lists projects proposed for a six-year period and is due by July 1 each year. The purpose of the plan is to give the Governor and the State Budget Director a long-range forecast of state funding needs for water resources development. The Governor can then use the plan to select and recommend projects for funding in the biennial budget. The plan also gives the members of the Advisory Budget Commission and the General Assembly a long-range forecast of state funding requirements for water resources development projects. The plan will provide them with information to use in their consideration of the Governor’s funding recommendations. B. Organization and Project Categories The plan has been written in three parts: 1) Project Listings; 2) Project Priorities and Funding Recommendations; and 3) Project Information. The first part contains a listing of all projects grouped under the five categories specified in part (b) of G.S. 143-215.73A. The second part shows the priority assigned to each project and whether or not it is recommended for funding, for deferral, or for elimination. The final section contains specific information on each project as required under G.S. 143-215.73A(d). C. Distribution of the Plan The Department of Environment and Natural Resources submits the plan to the Governor each year by July 1. The Governor also provides copies of the plan to the General Assembly along with her recommended biennial budget or her recommended revised budget for the second year of the biennium. D. Budget Recommendations This report includes the recommendations of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources as to which projects should be funded in the next biennial budget or in the revised budget for the second year of the biennium. The Governor chooses which of these projects, if any, will be included in her recommended biennial budget (or in the revised budget for the second year of the biennium). The budget document transmitted to the General Assembly by the Governor identifies the water resources development projects recommended for funding. 2 II. Project Lists A.

This has had far reaching effects on the physical, chemical, and biological functioning of the estuary. High salt content has manifested itself with timber die-off, which is present throughout many of the freshwater swamps above Wilmington. In addition, it has resulted in increased current and projected future costs to industries in the upper estuary due to increased monitoring and modifications of their facilities in order to cope with increasing salt loads. Reduction in the amount of introduced salts, which serve to flocculate riverine sediments in the area, could also result in substantial reduction of maintenance dredging at Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point. The Corps has proposed a Section 216 study on the salt water intrusion problem in the Cape Fear River estuary, of which Snow’s Cut has a role. The Corps would begin a reconnaissance study in FY 2013 to determine whether it is in the Federal interest to do this study. The U.S. Congress has not approved funding for this study and the non-federal sponsor is yet to be determined. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY (AIWW) MAINTENANCE DREDGING ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY (AIWW), SNOWS CUT (SECTION 216) The AIWW navigation channel runs 308 miles from the Virginia state line to the South Carolina state line through Currituck, Camden, Dare, Tyrrell, Hyde, Beaufort, Pamlico, Carteret, Onslow, Pender, New Hanover, and Brunswick Counties. In the past, the Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers has had sufficient funds to keep this channel dredged to its authorized depth of -12 feet, mean low water. However, several times in the last decade, the District has not had sufficient funds to perform this dredging. In order to keep the AIWW open for both commercial and recreational boat traffic, the State of North Carolina has provided funds to the Wilmington District so that they could hire a dredging contractor to do the dredging.

EVERETT JORDAN LAKE WATER SUPPLY BALD HEAD ISLAND BEACH RENOURISMENT, BRUNSWICK COUNTY The Village of Bald Head Island has requested that the Wilmington District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, perform a feasibility study on a shore protection project for the portions of its beach that are experiencing severe erosion. If directed by the U.S. Congress, the Wilmington District will perform a reconnaissance study, funded entirely with federal monies, in Fiscal Year 2013. If the reconnaissance study shows that there is a federal interest in doing this project, a cost-shared feasibility study will likely begin in Fiscal Year 2014. Unknown at this time N/A Ongoing Estimated Completion Date Status of Project B. Everett Jordan Lake is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' multipurpose reservoir that became operational in 1983. The water supply storage in the lake was included at the request of the State of North Carolina and was done with the understanding that the actual users of the water would repay the Corps the costs of including the water supply storage and the portion of the annual operating and maintenance costs associated with that storage. The General Statute GS 143- 354(a)(11) of the State of North Carolina gives the Environmental Management Commission (EMC) the authority to allocate to local governments any water supply storage held by the State in Federal reservoirs. The estimated safe yield of the 45,800 acre-feet of water supply storage is 100 million gallons per day. As of May 2007 the EMC has allocated 63 percent of that storage as follows: Level I allocations: Towns of Cary and Apex, Chatham County, City of Durham, Town of Morrisville, and Wake County - RTP South.; and Level II allocations: Town of Holly Springs, Orange County, and Orange Water & Sewer Authority. Both the State and the local government allocation holders are paying their proportionate shares of the interest on the cost of the water supply storage, plus their share of the O&M and major rehabilitation cost. In addition, local government allocation holders using Jordon Lake water are also paying off the principle. The initial principle amount was $4,388,000; as of March 1, 2012 the current remaining balance to be paid is $1,510,246.

The project consists of five segments: (1) the 15-foot deep Bulkhead Channel from the Town to Beaufort Inlet; (2) the 15-foot deep Gallants Channel from the Town north to the Newport River; (3) the 15-foot deep Taylor’s Creek Channel from the Town east to the North River and Back Sound; (4) the 12-foot deep Town Creek Channel and Basin north of Beaufort; and (5) the 14-foot Morgan Creek Channel and Basin. Carteret County, the non-Federal sponsor. N/A Next maintenance scheduled for FY2013 Estimated Completion Date The proposed project will replace and upgrade the existing breakwaters that protect the harbor and waterfront of Belhaven, NC. The existing breakwaters consist of northern and southern structures, each about 1900 feet long, at the entrance to Pantego Creek, separated by a central 500 foot navigation opening. The existing structures have many openings that allow water to pass through with little abatement. In the Spring of 2009, the Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers, received $3,250,000 in Disaster Supplemental funds to replace the existing structure with a new timber structure. This work was done in FY 2011. The Corps is also studying the addition of submerged reefs in the lee (harbor side) of both breakwaters. These reefs would improve the estuarine habitat and also increase sheltering of the harbor from waves, and if funded, could be constructed in FY 2013 The Corps plans to complete the reef study and start construction in 2013, if funded.

Estimated Completion Date Status of Project BOGUE BANKS BEACH PROTECTION, CARTERET COUNTY BRUNSWICK COUNTY BEACHES (OCEAN ISLE), NC This Corps of Engineers project is located in the Town of Ocean Isle Beach and provides for hurricane-wave protection and beach erosion control along the oceanfront. A levee consisting of a continuous vegetated dune and high beach berm stabilized by periodic nourishment has been constructed. The dune crown width is 25 feet at elevation 20 feet above mean sea level fronted by a storm berm having a width of 50 feet at elevation 15 feet above mean sea level for a distance of 28,000 feet. This project was approved as a new construction start in fiscal year 2000’s budget and was constructed in 2001. Beach was renourished in FY 2010. Bogue Banks is the barrier island in Carteret County located between Beaufort Inlet to the east and Bogue Inlet to the west. The communities of Pine Knoll Shores, Salter Path, Indian Beach, and Emerald Isle have experienced considerable erosion to the dune system and severe damage to upland structures due to recent hurricanes. Carteret County is requesting 50 percent cost-sharing of the non-Federal cost of the feasibility study for the Bogue Banks Shore Protection project that would be done by the Corps of Engineers. The Corps plans to complete the feasibility study in FY15, do preliminary engineering and design work in FY 16 , and then do the nourishment of the beaches in FY 17, 18 and 19.

The Corps would begin a reconnaissance study in FY 2014 to determine whether it is in the Federal interest to do this study. No state or local matching funds are required. The study will determine if the Corps should continue to operate the lock and dam in the future. The U.S. Congress has not approved funding for this study and the non-federal sponsor is yet to be determined. This Corps of Engineer project will protect these beaches through the construction of continuous storm berms and dunes along their ocean shorelines. The Wilmington District is investigating what the most effective dimensions of these berms and dunes should be through the preparation of a General Re-evaluation Report (GRR). They hope to complete the GRR in 2013. If that is the case, then initial construction would occur in Fiscal Year 2018, and re-nourishments would occur at three- to four-year intervals for the life of this project. The cost-sharing would initially be 65 percent Federal, 35 percent non-Federal, but then switch to 50–50 for all re-nourishments. The costs shown for construction and re-nourishments are general estimates.

Estimated Completion Date Status of Project 15 Construction began in FY 2011 Estimated Completion Date Status of Project CAROLINA BEACH SOUTH, NEW HANOVER COUNTY CONCORD STREAM RESTORATION (SECTION 206), CABARRUS COUNTY Restoration and rehabilitation are proposed for four stream segments in Concord: Three Mile Branch (approximately 8,000 feet), Afton Run (5,800 feet), Stricker Branch (approximately 5,500 feet), and Academy Center Branch (4,000 feet). The watersheds of the four streams are experiencing rapid residential and commercial development that has led to a variety of negative impacts on the subject streams, including slope failures, bank erosion, high in-stream sediment loadings, and loss of vegetated riparian buffers. The project would consist of stream channel reconstruction where feasible, restoration of riparian buffers, construction of natural marsh catchments, and purchase of existing wildlife corridors. In addition, aquatic habitat will be restored through the installation of in-stream habitat improvement structures. The City of Concord is the non-federal sponsor. This Corps of Engineers hurricane protection project is being constructed south of Carolina Beach in front of developments known as Wilmington Beach and Kure Beach. It provides for construction of a dune with a base generally bordering at or near the building line with a crown width of 25 feet at an elevation of 13.5 feet above mean low water and a beach berm 50 feet wide at elevation 9.0 feet above mean low water, extending 18,000 feet from the southern limits of Carolina Beach. Federal participation in the cost of beach nourishment will not exceed 50 years from year of initial placement, which was April of 1998. The Town of Kure Beach is the non-Federal sponsor of this project.

The area, which is largely developed, has experienced erosion and damages as a result of recent storms and hurricanes. The study has located sand sources that could be used for beach nourishment. The Corps recommends that the initial nourishment be done on approximately 13.5 miles of beach in three phases over a three-year period. The design cost-sharing agreement between Dare County and the Corps of Engineers was signed in July 2001. The project cooperation agreement was executed in September 2004. The lack of Federal funding has delayed the start of the project. Project is currently on hold. Currituck Sound is a 153 square mile brackish water estuary separated from the Atlantic Ocean by the Outer Banks. A recent increase in salinity levels has caused a severe decline in many freshwater fisheries (largemouth bass, black crappie, and bluegill). Also, there has been a significant loss of submerged aquatic vegetation. The Corps, in partnership with the State of North Carolina has begun an investigation to determine the specific causes of the decline in species mentioned above and the necessary actions to restore the Sound. If the study finds a feasible solution, implementation would begin in FY 15.

KERR DAM AND RESERVOIR, NC & VC SECTION 216 STUDY John H. Kerr Reservoir is operated by the Corps of Engineers for flood control, hydropower, recreation, and water releases to enhance striped bass spawning in the Roanoke River. The storage and release of water at Kerr Dam affects agriculture, forestry, wildlife, water quality, and industrial water use in the entire lower Roanoke Basin. The State of North Carolina, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the Corps of Engineers are sponsoring a study of the operation of Kerr Lake to see if the economic and environmental benefits from the lake can be increased. At the end of the study it is anticipated that both structural and non-structural measures will be taken to improve the operation of John H. Kerr Dam. Preliminary engineering and design of these measures would begin in FY 2013. This project involves the maintenance dredging of the navigation channel in Far Creek, which runs from the village of Engelhard to Pamlico Sound. The channel is used by commercial fishing boats that dock in the basin at Engelhard. The channel is 12 feet deep and 100 feet wide. The non-Federal cost is required to prepare the dredged material disposal site. Hyde County is the non-federal sponsor of the project. The next maintenance dredging of the channel is expected to be required in FY 2014.

As the non-Federal sponsor of this channel, the state is required to pay for preparation of the spoil disposal sites, which involves the raising of dikes around a spoil disposal island (Island H). The Corps pays for 100% of the dredging costs. In addition to the channel from Oregon Inlet to Wanchese Harbor, there are two other channels—the Manteo to Wanchese and the North—that are a part of this project. Because the Corps views these projects as primarily recreational, it has not maintained them. Because of this policy, the state has paid to keep these channels open. The proposed project would use sandy dredged material from maintenance dredging of Old House Channel to build submerged sand mounds to be topped with cultch for oyster reefs. Sand would be placed in submerged enclosures in a depth of water where optimum oyster growing conditions are found. The submerged mounds will be located near the authorized navigation channel where submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) or other significant resources exist. Creation of the submerged sand mounds would provide an environmentally sound disposal area for dredged material.

This study will focus on ways to improve water quality as well as how best to improve aquatic habitats. It focuses on three areas: (1) stream and wetland restoration; (2) removal of obsolete dams and other obstructions; and (3) restoration of oyster habitat and oysters in the Neuse River estuary. Projects recommended by this study may be done as continuing authority projects by the Corps of Engineers, if funding is available, or by the State of North Carolina, if federal funding is not available. The deepening of Morehead City Harbor to 45 feet was completed in 1994. Maintenance dredging of this Harbor has been done in two ways: (1) sand from the outer ocean bar channels has been placed in either an ocean disposal site or a near shore site and (2) mostly sandy material from the inner channel and harbor area has been pumped to the Brandt Island disposal area. As the non-Federal sponsor of this project, the state is required to pay for preparation of the spoil disposal sites, which involves the raising of dikes and spillway repairs.

The initial plans and specs initiated in FY 2010. FY 2065 Status of Project 23 Project authorization in a Water Resources Development Act is next milestone Estimated Completion Date WILMINGTON HARBOR DEEPENING, NEW HANOVER and BRUNSWICK COUNTIES This project includes deepening of Wilmington Harbor, the navigation channel in the Cape Fear River from Wilmington Harbor to the Atlantic Ocean, and the Northeast Cape Fear River navigation channel. It also includes the construction of a 200-foot widening of the Cape Fear River navigation channel for a distance of 6 miles (called a passing lane) and the construction of wideners at the major turns and bends of that Cape Fear channel. The deepening will allow Wilmington Harbor to accommodate fully loaded container ships and other bulk cargo ships and keep shipping costs competitive with those at Norfolk, Charleston, and Savannah. The passing lane and wideners will allow larger ships to navigate the Cape Fear River channel in less time and greater safety.

PROJECT, NEW HANOVER AND BRUNSWICK COUNTIES Maintenance dredging is required almost every year to keep open the channels from the Atlantic Ocean up the Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear rivers to Wilmington, Fayetteville, and other terminal points. The Federal government pays for the cost of dredging the sediments, while the state of North Carolina, the non- Federal sponsor, pays for the cost of dredged material disposal areas. Without this maintenance work, the exporting and importing of goods and commodities through the State Ports Authority terminal and numerous private terminals could not occur. The beach quality sand that is dredged from the navigation channel from the Atlantic Ocean to Wilmington is placed on the following beaches: Carolina Beach, Bald Head Island, Caswell Beach, and Oak Island. N/A Status of Project 24 Ongoing Estimated Completion Date *State expenditures since 2001 WILMINGTON HARBOR IMPROVEMENTS FEASIBILITY STUDY, NC This is a proposed cost-shared U.S. Army Corps of Engineers feasibility study which would investigate issues related to traffic delays and safety concerns caused by the existing Wilmington Harbor channel alignment. Areas to be investigated include the entrance channel, navigation channel adjacent to Bald Head Island and the Battery Island turn, and the safe and efficient turning of containerships in the existing Anchorage Basin, The study would seek to identify options for improving access to the State Ports Authority terminal and other private terminals in the Wilmington Harbor complex and improve safety for ships visiting the harbor. The safe and efficient operation of the Wilmington Harbor complex is vital to the economy of the local area and the entire State.

The Wilson Bay aquatic ecosystem was degraded by many years of wastewater from a sewage treatment plant and by urban non-point source runoff. This restoration project’s goals are to improve water quality, restore the benthic community and the use of the Bay as a nursery area, and restore the use of the Bay for recreation and economic purposes. The City of Jacksonville has already taken several major actions to rehabilitate the Bay including the decommissioning of the wastewater treatment plant, installing three water column aeration units, planting oysters in the bay, and planting wetlands along the shoreline. The Corps has designed a project to help the City’s project become self-sustaining. It will purchase and operate three additional aerators, restore wetlands and creeks within the Wilson Bay urban watershed, plant additional oysters and submerged aquatic vegetation, and install bio-swales and rain gardens. The City of Jacksonville is the non-federal sponsor of the project.

Division of Water Resources Aquatic Weed Control Program. The facility would be located in Raleigh, on land leased from North Carolina State University. The N.C. Division of Water Resources provides technical assistance to local governments and public utilities in the management of noxious aquatic weed infestations. This assistance involves the use of an assortment of specialized equipment which is required to conduct the field work. The types of equipment include: Truck, boats (3 airboats, 2 jonboats), canoes, small gas-powered engines, sprayers, spreaders, power cutters, hand tools, etc. This equipment is currently stored at a temporary location pending the construction of a proper facility. The new facility would allow for centralized long-term storage and a base for field operations. The facility would provide a safe place to service and repair equipment and protect sensitive and specialized equipment from the weather. The facility would also provide a secure room for the herbicides and related chemicals used by the program. N.C. State University has agreed to prepare a site and provide utilities in exchange for shared space in the new facility. The NCSU has an aquatic weed research program that is part of the Crop Science division. They are interested in consolidating their operations into one location. The needs of the two programs (DWR and NCSU) align and the partnership will provide mutual benefits Est. Completion Date N/A Estimated Cost in FY 2013 (if funded) Cost to June 30, 2012 Status of Project Local Local $ - On hold, pending future funding The N.C. Div. of Water Resources provides technical and financial assistance to local governments in the evaluation and treatment of aquatic weed infestations. State financial assistance (50% cost-sharing) for local weed control projects is still available. During the 2011 treatment season, DWR worked with local government and utility sponsors in the treatment of approximately 1833 acres of weed infested waters using herbicides, and an additional 584 acres were targeted with biological agents (Treatment numbers include Lake Gaston). In 2012 a similar number of projects and scope is expected. The estimated total cost to provide this service is $200,000. Lake Gaston is infested with a noxious aquatic weed called hydrilla. Hydrilla interferes with recreational activities like fishing, boating/PWC, and swimming. Hydrilla also has the potential to impact hydro-electric operations. A 2011 survey identified 1,449 acres of hydrilla in this ~20,000 acre reservoir. The Division of Water Resources has assisted the Lake Gaston Weed Control Council in the chemical and biological treatments of hydrilla since 1994. To suppress hydrilla growth an applicator was contracted in 2011 to apply herbicide to ~1,275 acres. Continued herbicide treatments are needed to further reduce hydrilla acreage. $ 3,438,407 State Funding Source G.S. 143-215.71 On-going Status of Project Estimated Cost in FY 2013 (if funded) 31 Deferred Est.
